The Lovers + Ace of Swords as timing

I asked my cards how long something is going to last and I got the lovers and the ace of swords , I read it as one week to one month, what do you guys think?

Honestly, I wouldn’t read either of those cards as a literal time frame. The Lovers + Ace of Swords feels more like a "clear decision point" than a calendar date. The Lovers is usually about choosing the path that actually aligns with you, and the Ace of Swords is that sharp moment of clarity or truth that pushes things forward.

If anything, it’s saying the situation lasts until a decision is made or a conversation happens, not "X weeks." Could it be quick? Sure — Aces can be fast. But I wouldn’t lock it into one week vs. one month. Feels more like, "this lasts until someone finally speaks up / chooses / commits."

Just my two cents.

I dunno if I’d put a solid timeframe on that combo. The Lovers + Ace of Swords reads more like a turning point than a countdown. The Lovers is usually about alignment or a choice, and the Ace of Swords is that "okay, here’s the truth, let’s cut through the fog" moment.

So to me it feels like the situation lasts right up until there’s a conversation or a decisive shift. Could happen fast, because Aces don’t usually drag their feet, but I wouldn’t translate it directly into weeks. More like: it ends when someone finally gets honest or makes the call.
